Bill Summary

A bill to amend 1954 PA 116, entitled"Michigan election law,"by amending sections 312, 641, and 821 (MCL 168.312, 168.641, and 168.821), section 312 as amended by 2013 PA 253, section 641 as amended by 2015 PA 197, and section 821 as amended by 2018 PA 614.

AI Summary

This bill, amending Michigan's election law, aims to limit when school districts can hold elections for millage, which is a local tax. Specifically, starting January 1, 2027, school districts will generally only be allowed to submit ballot questions related to borrowing money, increasing millage (taxes), or establishing bonds during the November general election, which is the first Tuesday after the first Monday in November. This change is intended to consolidate elections and is tied to another bill, House Bill 4583 of the 103rd Legislature, meaning this bill will only become law if that other bill is also enacted. The bill also makes minor adjustments to language in existing sections regarding special elections and the canvassing of election results, ensuring these also adhere to the new November election limitation where applicable.
